Drees Homes - Drees Homes did a great job building our home.

Drees Homes did a great job building our home. With supply chain shortages they explored every option to get our house built in teh time that was promised and at teh price we were told. Debbie and Kris were great to work with and I highly recommend building with Drees.

Drees Homes - Total lack of craftsmanship in our home - no pride in workmanship.

  • Anonymous

Total lack of craftsmanship in our home - no pride in workmanship. No follow-through with site manager. Incorrect materials used, walls and trim work are curved, light switches wired randomly, no insulation in basement, floors are not even, brick and mortar sloppy and ruined porches, standing water in duct work, poor quality of lumber used, etc.

Poor Builder Quality and workmanship

  • Anonymous

  • Holly Springs, NC

Very poor quality of the grading, landscape, they cut the trees in my lot but not removed the stumps, Too much noise from 2nd and 3rd floor below the carpet, it looks like below the carper ceiling not installed properly(20% area) making more noise, carpet nails not installed properly hurt you while walking, have to wait 90 days to fix some of these issues, poor quality of the painting work, wrong colors installed on ceiling, Instead of fixing and improving the quality they just talk normal buzz word as per the code. Its not worth for the amount we paid and services. One last thing ...

My home experience

  • Saint Augustine, FL

I think buying my home with Drees was a great experience. This is my third home with 3 different builders, overall this has been the best experience. The only issue I had was with timeliness of repairs, I have been in my hoe for about 2 months, and still have red and blue tags.

Drees Homes - Did a building your own kit instead of using a custom builder

  • Erin F.
  • Verified HomeBuyer
  • August 17, 2022
  • Avon, IN

Did a building your own kit instead of using a custom builder and we should have gone custom. We moved in June 10 after months of delays and no work being completed. Our punch list from our walk thru June 2 still isn’t done. Took our construction manager off our house and sent him to a neighborhood 3 weeks before we were supposed to move in. Communication as to delays was horrible. Communication as to completing this punch list has been nonexistent unless I reach out and follow up. If you’re building in an established Drees neighborhood, they’ll be great. But I would not recommend it for an ...

Everything was great from start to finish! Some small bumps in the road but those were completely unavoidable. Drees was very responsive to any issue. Danny our sales person was amazing and we could not have asked for a better builder than Mark. If I ever build again, I will most likely use Drees!

Drees Homes - My house has too many water leak issues in the basement within

  • Karthik M.

  • Lebanon, OH

My house has too many water leak issues in the basement within the first month of the move. These things should have been taken care properly before handing over the house. Its almost 2 months now and my basement is a mess with broken drywalls and the tarps are torn for fixing. Most of the windows were not properly caulked due to last month thunderstorm may windows had too much water leak due to poor caulking. These caulking and water proofing are the basic things that needs to be done for water prevention into the house. I have called drees more than 5 times in last 2 months for multiple ...

They had no plan

  • James W.
  • Verified HomeBuyer
  • July 28, 2022
  • Indianapolis, IN

Was told it would be 7-9 months. Took almost 15. Went through 3 builders and none of them ever said the same story as the last one. They liked to blame supply chain and the job market, but they spent a lot of time on rework. Dug the basement and foundation, saw that it had field tiles draining into it, and ignored it for a month while the sides collapsed. Had to excavate more and do a lot of extra backfill because of that. Most of the time we were waiting on something it was because they messed up. Wrong sized windows, wrong size doors, didn’t order enough siding, etc. Ripped out all the ...

Drees offers a high quality home. The overall experience to build was not the horrible, but for the price of the home…there is definitely room for improvement. We love the completed work, although 2 months into the home (after closing) we are still waiting on a few minor things to be resolved.
